A Perceforest Reader: Selected Episodes from Perceforest: The Prehistory of Arthur's Britain
ISBN: 9781843842903 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Perceforest is one of the largest and certainly the most extraordinary of the late Arthurian romances, and is almost completely unknown except to a handful of scholars. But it is a work of exceptional richness and importance, and has been justly described as "an encyclopaedia of 14th-century chivalry" and "a mine of folkloric motifs." Its contents are drawn not only from earlier Arthurian material, but also from romances about Alexander the Great, from Roman histories and from medieval travel writing - not to mention oral tradition, including as it does the first and unexpurgated version of...

The History of William Marshal
ISBN: 9781783273034 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The career of William Marshal (1146/7-12), who rose from being the penniless, landless younger son of a middle-ranking nobleman to be regent of England in the minority of Henry III, is one of the most extraordinary stories of the Middle Ages. His biography was completed shortly after his death by a household minstrel and we are fortunate that it su

The History of William Marshal
ISBN: 9781783271313 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 259 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The History of William Marshal is the earliest surviving biography of a medieval knight - indeed it is the first biography of a layman in the vernacular in European history. Composed in verse in the 1220s just a few years after his death, it is a major primary source not simply for its subject's life but for the exceptionally stormy period he had had to navigate. It could hardly be other than major, given that its subject was regarded as the greatest knight who ever lived and that he rose in the course of his long life to be a central figure in the reigns of no fewer than four kings: Henry...

Perceforest: The Prehistory of King Arthur's Britain
ISBN: 9781843842620 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 640 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Perceforest is one of the largest and certainly the most extraordinary of the late Arthurian romances. Justly described as -an encyclopaedia of 14th-century chivalry- and -a mine of folkloric motifs-, it is the subject of rapidly increasing attention and research. The author of Perceforest draws on Alexander romances, Roman histories and medieval travel writing (not to mention oral tradition, as he gives, for example, the distinctly racy first written version of the Sleeping Beauty story), to create a remarkable prehistory of King Arthur's Britain. It begins with the arrival in Britain of...

The High Book of the Grail: A translation of the thirteenth-century romance of Perlesvaus
ISBN: 9781843841210 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The High Book of the Grail (Perlesvaus) is one of the most fascinating of medieval Arthurian romances, standing apart from the main tradition represented by the great romance cycles on which Malory based his work. Written in the first half ofthe thirteenth century, it represents a totally different view of the legend of the Holy Grail from that found in Wolfram von Eschenbach or the French Quest of the Holy Grail, though all derive from Chretien's Perceval; the unknown author adds a much greater religious emphasis, and a desire to glorify crusading chivalry for the secular adventures of...

The Legend of the Grail
ISBN: 9781843840831 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Grail legends have been appropriated by novelists as diverse as Umberto Eco and Dan Brown yet very few have read for themselves the original stories from which they came. All the mystery and drama of the Arthurian world are embodied in the extraordinary tales of Perceval, Gawain, Lancelot and Galahad in pursuit of the Holy Grail. The original romances, full of bewildering contradictions and composed by a number of different writers, dazzle with the sheer wealth of their conflicting imagination. In Nigel Bryant's hands, this enthralling material becomes truly accessible. He has constructed...

The True Chronicles of Jean Le Bel, 1290 - 1360
ISBN: 9781783270224 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The chronicles of Jean le Bel, written around 1352-61, are one of the most important sources for the beginning of the Hundred Years' War. They were only rediscovered and published at the beginning of the twentieth century, though Froissart begins his much more famous work by acknowledging his great debt to the -true chronicles- which Jean le Bel had written. Many of the great pages of Froissart are actually the work of Jean le Bel, and this is the first translation of his book. It introduces English-speaking readers to a vivid text written by a man who, although a canon of the cathedral at...
